Go is going to become very popular for network services other than http. It is likely to be used by anyone who gets really sick of bind or postfix and decides to make their own network daemon. Additionally it will probably be used for high volume commercial network applications like mmo backend servers, because those devs are c++ guys and go will seem like a goddamned miracle to them. It has some promise for the client end but the killer apps will probably come server-side, and full-service apache-style http has already been handled (and re-handled in tomcat and nginx).
